Illegal paracetamol worth R5 mln seized - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

The SAHPRA has seized containers from Mozambique of illegal medicines worth R 5 million.

The South African Health Products Regulatory Authority has seized containers from Mozambique of illegal medicines worth R 5 million.found containers with tablets and powder which reportedly contain paracetamol. SAHPRA spokesperson Yuven Gounden say preliminary investigations show that the medicines are not South African products.

“The shipment had no papers, so no one knew where it came from and where it was going to. When we questioned the driver, he said it was going to a certain organisation. When the police contacted the organisation they knew nothing about the shipment. So we had to seize that shipment…” “We’ve done one quick examination of it, and so far it tells that it contains paracetamol. We are not sure if that is paracetamol but definitely it’s not South African product. It was not supposed to be in this country,” added Gounden.

This is what SA POLICE do, while the REAL CRIMINALS WITH GUNS doing Armed robberies and Hijackings GO FREE!

What an interesting story! Well done SABC for picking up on this. Now don't forget to do a follow-up, because it raises interesting questions. Like, why not import paracetamol (constituent of Panado-type pills) legally?

They must rot in jail

now the should be a teaching on identification of a right med.

Imagine! So people can suffer another ailment from taking meds that's supposed to make them better ? Wicked lots. Keep up the good work 👍🏽

Good job , thank you
